[Verse 1]
A promise is made to be broken
And then it turns into a lie
A wish is for hopin' that a fire won't die
When our love has run out of time

[Chorus]
For a long goodbye
It's time to let go now
End of the road now
For a long goodbye
Sooner or later
We'll have to say it one last time

[Verse 2]
Too many words left unspoken
Maybe there's nothin' to say
We tried to hold on, but the dream got away
And now there's no reason to stay

[Chorus]
For a long goodbye
It's time to let go now
End of the road now
For a long goodbye
'Cause sooner or later
We'll have to say it one last time
